Concetta G. Spirio (She/Her) is an attorney with over 36 years of experience in diverse areas of law. She is a trained Collaborative Divorce Attorney and Mediator. While having practiced in traditional divorce litigation, it was her first-hand view of the financial and emotional devastation of divorce litigation to close family members that reoriented her view of the legal divorce process. Further as a member of the LGBTQI Community she recognizes the need for alternative processes outside the Court systems, where the traditional process does not serve this community or their families and can cause irrevocably harm to important relationships and inflict permanent financial damage. Concetta is dedicated to alternative processes that preserve the dignity, confidentiality and assets of the parties and protects innocent children and family members. Mediation and the Collaborative Process offers a path to a successful resolution of conflicts including divorce.
